Antique Chinese Furniture

Our Chinese antique furniture dates from 18^th, 19^th & early 20^th century with date authenticity guaranteed. Our Chinese furniture is mostly from Shanxi & Gansu province although we also purchase from Beijing, Tianjin, Hunan & Jiangsu provinces. The climate of these areas is more stable and less humid meaning there is less wood movement when pieces arrive in the UK. Chinese antique furniture from the border of Tibet & Mongolia is particularly interesting with its vibrant paint finishes. 

Chinese cabinets are the most common type of Chinese antique furniture and come in a large range of styles and sizes. The most dramatic Chinese cabinets are Chinese wedding cabinets which are usually coloured with either black lacquer or red lacquer. Chinese antique sideboards are our most popular type of Chinese antique furniture.

Chinese furniture is incredibly well made with precise and considered construction. Most panels and doors are not glued and are made as "floating panels" allowing them to move freely as the climate changes. 

We hold the largest selection of quality antique Chinese antique furniture in the UK. Roughly half of our selection is available online with more pieces available to view in store.
